Chapter 464: Bad Luck Strikes (Fourth Watch)

Xu Yuanxi's family had already set up the wine and dishes, the wine was mash juice mixed with water five times, and the dish was only a boiled pheasant in white water that lacked salt and oil and a wild vegetable. In recent years, Jiangdong Sixty-four Tun, this is already a very rich meal. Because of Li Zhengfu, a guest, Xu Yuan and his mother did not serve at the table, only Xu Yuanxi plus his son Xu Jin, and his son-in-law Wang Dali, who was not yet named, accompanied the guests.

"Let's add some meaning!" Li Zhengfu took out a small wine jug from his arms and added some to a jar of mash juice, which was the only wealth he had at the moment, and Lao Maozi also made him poor and white.

Big meats such as chicken thighs were given to Li Zhengfu, and Xu Yuanxi himself gnawed some chicken ribs. Xu Jin is greedy enough, but he is also a flag man, and he can't forget the rules, so he can eat first with guests and father, and he will make some minced meat and cartilage to satisfy his hunger. Wang Dali was even more shy, basically eating two bites of wild vegetables occasionally, most of the time he listened to the elders, and everyone gave way a few times, and this good hunter put his chopsticks in the chicken basin for a while.

Four big men eat with only a chicken and a plate of wild vegetables, and what will be left when the two women are served. But these four people hid their secrets, Li Zhengfu hid a chicken leg in his sleeve for Xu Yuan, Xu Yuanxi hid a chicken butt for his daughter, Wang Dali hid a chicken wing and a large piece of good meat for his lover and future mother-in-law, and Xu Jin made a large piece of chicken skin and buckled it at the bottom of the bowl for his mother-in-law. Several people still wanted not to show their faces, but as soon as the mystery was revealed, they could almost spell out half a chicken, and everyone could only laugh.

"You eat!" Xu Yuan had a lot of things in his bowl, but he found that Wang Dali, who had eaten and drunk, didn't even have a little oil at the corner of his mouth, so he picked up the chicken leg and sent it to Wang Dali's mouth.

"You eat, you eat, I'm happy to see you eat, I'll fight again tomorrow, there's still something in the meadow by the river!" Where is Wang Dali willing to eat, he just looked at Xu Yuan and smirked.

The two little lovers here let go of each other, and the son and the mother over there also hurt each other, and finally Xu Jin took another big bite of chicken skin, and the mother who was not yet forty had a kind smile. Xu Yuanxi and Li Zhengfu, who loaded cigarettes, felt a little warm in their hearts, but they were also sour for a while.

"The kids didn't make it to the good times! Ten years back, where do we need to suffer such a crime! Xu Yuanxi only felt sorry for his son and daughter.

"Bear with me! The news of the general's Northern Expedition to recover the land has been getting worse and worse recently! Li Zhengfu comforted Xu Yuanxi.

"Will it? The general is at ease in Jiangyou, will he still care about us? It's been too peaceful lately! "Although there has been no major fighting between the two sides in the past few years in Taiping, there have been continuous small-scale conflicts on the Heilongjiang River. The Han family's shack is on the riverside, and the cannon sound of the river fleets on both sides of the river can often be heard demonstrating against each other, but recently there has been no sound.

"The quieter it is, the more it means that something is going to happen. The general on the other side is a ruthless character, maybe he will fight back one day, look forward to it! Li Zhengfu didn't know whether to comfort Xu Yuanxi or himself.

Xu Yuan's mother and daughter also finished eating, and took the dishes and chopsticks outside to wash. Wang Dali also went to help, and from time to time he made some splashes with Xu Yuan for a while, but suddenly he stopped, and he seemed to be listening to something with his ears sideways. Li Zhengfu and Xu Yuanxi also felt something different in the air, they couldn't say that it was a bad feeling, but it made them very uncomfortable.

"Don't pretend!" Xu Yuan was still teasing the water, thinking that Wang Dali was cheating.

"Yuanyuan, don't make trouble, there is a horse team coming!" It was already dark, and the tunzi was relatively quiet, and Wang Dali, who was often hunting, heard the sound of horses' hooves.

"You pretend again!" Xu Yuan refused to believe it.

"It's a brigade!" Li Zhengfu put his ear to the ground and listened for a while, and immediately made a judgment. Before Jiangdong 64 Tun was abandoned by Guoxing'a, young people who had reached the age of 18 in each of the tun had to go to Aihui City every February and August to carry out horseback riding, archery and other exercises, so Li Zhengfu, who had received a certain amount of training, knew that this was the sound of war horses.

Xu Yuan was also honest, without anyone else's words, she also saw that something was wrong, and there were already ripples on the water in the basin that were constantly vibrating. Gradually, the neighing of men and horses was clearly audible, and now everyone knew that a large group of men and horses were coming towards them. This is definitely not what Li Zhengfu said, because his own people have to cross the river to come, so many horse teams must be Lao Maozi here.

", Lao Maozi has entered the tunzi, beckoning my brother to copy a few guys!" Wang Dali shouted to Xu Jin, turned over and took his longbow and left.

"Ahun!" Xu Yuan's little face turned pale, and he called Wang Dali worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'm fine! Find a place to hide, and I'll protect you! Wang Dali turned around and patted the top of Xu Yuan's head affectionately, turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop, don't mess around, it's going to be troublesome if you cause a big disaster, they may just come to collect food, don't give them the truth to kill!" Li Zhengfu saw that Xu Jin had taken a bow and arrows and was about to leave, so he hurriedly stopped a few young people. Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, Lao Maozi said that there must be hundreds of people, and there are muskets in the people, and there are hundreds of young people's bows and arrows in the tunzi, and the fight will definitely be sent to death.

Wang Dali and Xu Jin still wanted to argue, but Xu Yuanxi also supported Li Zhengfu's judgment, and they could only obediently obey orders. Originally, Xu Yuanxi wanted to ask his wife and daughter to hide, and told the other women in the tunzi not to show up, but Lao Maozi came too quickly this time, and before Xu Yuan's mother and daughter could move, Lao Maozi's cavalry entered the hospital. And not only Xu Yuanxi's family, but also every household in the Han family's shacks, none of them can hide, and they are all blocked at home by Lao Maozi.

"I'm the Gogolu of this land, what are you going to do? Please tell me something! Li Zhengfu saw that Lao Maozi's cavalry had a fierce look in his eyes, and there were still dried blood stains on his saber, so he hurriedly identified himself, so as not to provoke any changes.

The bearded old hairy cavalry didn't reply, but sat on the horse and looked at Xu Yuan's mother and daughter, with a wicked smile on his hideous and terrifying face. Wang Dali and Xu Jin found out that something was wrong at a glance, both of them had just put away their bows, and now they could only touch a hoe and a firewood knife in their hands nearby, if Lao Maozi dared to do something wrong, the two of them would be ready to fight.

"Скорее, не копайся, все это подстроили!" Outside the courtyard came shouts in Russian.

The old Maozi cavalry glanced outside in disgust, and then drove a few people outside with his saber. Li Zhengfu and Xu Yuanxi took the guys in the hands of Wang Dali and Xu Jin one by one, whispered to them not to make trouble, and then obediently followed Lao Maozi on the road of no return.
